Default GP J3 Cub ARF Engine Mounting

I'm trying to assemble a Great PLanes 81" fabric covered ARF with a Saito .72. With the engine mount in the location per plans, the throttle arm will stick out above the cowl. As I looked at it, it appeared that if the carb were rotated 180 degrees it would solve all my problems, (put the throttle arm inside the cowl and the needle would point up.)
This is my first 4-stoke and I don't want to mess it up, is rotating the carb the proper procedure? Anyone else with a GP Cub and a .72 have any suggestions?

Thanks
Randy
